==Highlights of 2014==
2014 proved to be a very exciting year for the Delta chapter of Kappa Kappa Gamma. In January, we welcomed 44 new members. The second week of the new members being in the house, we had a cabin retreat in Brown County, Indiana. Here, the new members bonded as a pledge class and also with the house as a whole.
In February, one of our new members participated in Miss Greek IU. Miss Greek IU is Delta Chi’s philanthropy on campus that raises money for the V Foundation. Most of our chapter showed up to cheer Abby on and she made us very proud! Also, in February we had our mom’s weekend! Our mom’s came for the entire weekend in which we had dinner, an auction, a night out on the town, painting class, cooking class, and many more fun activities!
We initiated 41 new members in early March. This was an incredible and amazing experience for everyone involved. Also, towards the end of March were the annual qualifications for Little 500 and we had 4 girls participate, and we qualified for Little 500!
The Little 500 race was in late April and we had an amazing time cheering on our dedicated bike team.
In May of 2014, we said goodbye to our seniors who graduated. We are so proud of them and everything they’ve accomplished!
Our summer months were spent constantly missing each and every one of our sisters. There wasn’t a day that went by without us sending each other a text or leaving a voicemail about how excited we were all to head back to Bloomington. At the end of August we were all reunited once again and our new pledge class moved into the house for their first time.
In September, school was in full swing and we were all so excited to be back. We head our annual Kappasta event in which we raised money for Reading is Fundamental and the American Cancer Society. Overall, we raised over $8,000!
In October, we had our annual barn dance date party! It was so much fun and the girls can’t wait for the next one.
In November, most of our chapter participated in Indiana University Dance Marathon (IUDM)! This is a 36 hour dance marathon (no sitting, no sleeping) that helps raise money for Riley Hospital for Children in Indianapolis, IN. As a house, we raised over $30,000, and the grand total of the marathon was $3, 206,340.22 all for the kids at Riley! Kappa is extremely involved in the dance marathon and many of the girls have joined committees. Also, November was our annual dad’s weekend. We took our dads to a tailgate and football game and loved being able to spend time with them!
December was very exciting for all of us. We had our winter formal in the beginning of the month, and then we had to start preparing for finals and Winter Break. Over winter break, we said goodbye to two more girls who graduated. We are so proud of them and all of their hard work!
